Speaker 3 (0:02) Sup, gigglers. Speaker 1 (0:03) Gary, fix the Wi-Fi. Speaker 3 (0:05) Manifest that shit. Speaker 1 (0:06) We can't be managed. I mean, the day just got away from me. Speaker 3 (0:15) Hello, my glitzy gigglers. It's fashion week. It's fashion. Wait, let me get my shades on. It's fashion week. Speaker 2 (0:23) It's too much. Hannah's got me up at 8.30 a.m. I just opened my eyes. Speaker 3 (0:28) I do have to say, the reason I'm so awake is woke up to Humblebrag. Name drop. Voice message from Chelsea Handler. Did not realize I was going to the US Open with her. Hannah calls me in a tizzy. She's like, wait, I don't remember how the text went. I somehow miscommunicated with Chelsea Handler that we're going to the US Open. And she's like, I'll see you tomorrow. Pick you up at 3. Speaker 2 (0:55) You know what we don't talk about enough on this pod? Speaker 3 (0:57) That I miscommunicate with everyone? Speaker 2 (0:59) That you just flex on us randomly. Speaker 3 (1:02) Well, I'm feeling a little insecure because you've been hanging out with Kendall Jenner all week. So I had to plug. I had to do a plug. I met her for a plug. Two and a half minutes. Yeah, but the way she looked at you, I didn't like that. She Speaker 2 (1:15) loved you. She literally was like, oh, that's my Speaker 3 (1:19) girl. Speaker 2 (1:19) We didn't talk about it because she is brunette. Speaker 3 (1:22) Yeah, she loved you. Speaker 2 (1:24) And it's like when you hang out with people, you're hanging out with blondes. It's Speaker 3 (1:27) kind of like when you have a hot boyfriend. Like, I want girls to look at him like he's hot. Like, I want other girls to want to be friends with you, but I just want them to gnair because I've put in the Speaker 2 (1:37) time and effort. Right. Speaker 3 (1:38) Anywho. Oh, yeah. So. Somehow, you guys, I'm going to the U.S. Open tonight with my mom. What are you wearing, doll? Speaker 2 (1:46) I didn't go to the U.S. This is the first time in 10 years I haven't gone to the U.S. Open. In 10 years? Speaker 3 (1:53) Yeah. I've gone every year for like 10 years. Oh, my God. And you just learned the rules last year. Speaker 2 (1:58) No. You want to know what? Like 10 years. Wait. Do you want to know something? And this happens at every sporting event in my life because then I sat down and I thought about it and I'm like, why is it impossible for me to retain this information? Because you Speaker 3 (2:16) don't Speaker 2 (2:16) care. Every year the Super Bowl comes or like some playoff games come that people are like, big game, we're doing a party or we're going somewhere, get an outfit. And every year I relearn the rules of football. And I think. I got this. This is easy. Speaker 3 (2:33) Not to defend you, but you have so many algorithms in your head for outfits you're putting together for the event that by the time you get there, you're burnt. You've nothing left to give. I Speaker 2 (2:43) have to go to the Giants game on Sunday. I can't figure out what to wear. It's killing me. I'm doing all Fashion Week stuff. All I care about is this Giants outfit because it's stumping me. Wait. Because it's nighttime. I don't know what the weather is. Like, it's... a nighttime game vibe is very different and then it's like if the sun goes down and it drops to like 60 i'm gonna be freezing but if i'm there for a tailgate i'll Speaker 3 (3:07) be sweating my balls off i feel like espn like hears about us like someone's like in the network meeting they're like okay the numbers are good but giggly squad the number one sports podcast in the world is really like we Speaker 2 (3:20) don't try to talk about sports do you think find a red track jacket anywhere to get shipped to me in less than two days this is the problem with shopping i can't go anywhere and get anything immediately track jackets are trending they've been trending for six months why the fuck can i find a red track jacket Speaker 3 (3:41) interesting i Speaker 2 (3:45) want a windbreaker i want like i want something that i can curl under that i can wear with a black capri And then I can decide if I want to do a flat or a sandal, like a heeled thong sandal. That was my vision for the outfit. Look. But now I'm like, I'm rethinking everything. When in doubt, windbreaker it out. Yeah. That's what we say. Speaker 3 (4:05) That's what we say. That's what we say. Because the truth is, you're never too cold, you're never too hot. You can bloat in it. You look like you're leaving at any time, which is cool, girl. I can wear a comfy tank under it. Oh, I love it. And then if you want to show a little decolletage, you can. But then Speaker 2 (4:22) if you want to be stuck up, you can pull it up. You do a stud and a track jacket. And you can put hair up if you want. You can also put it down. She's rich, but she's not throwing it in your face. Speaker 3 (4:32) Yes. Well, that's why the YSL windbreaker is so fucked up. Track jackets just says so much. And also you are the fastest kid in the fifth grade. So it just like is a great callback fourth grade. Speaker 2 (4:44) And I owe it all to these one pair of Nike sneakers that I really feel like they never remade. The bottom of those sneakers are the best bottoms I've ever had in my life. Speaker 3 (4:55) Oh, was that like the Speaker 2 (4:55) ones that had the like Speaker 3 (4:55) bounce? Speaker 2 (4:56) A little bit. They were rippled all the way down and the side was a pink Nike sign. But Hannah, it was metallic. It was like hard. It was like 3D, like you could touch it. It was pink metallic. I'm Speaker 3 (5:10) just envisioning you winning the Olympics and going on stage and everyone's like, how did you do it? And I'm like, you're like, the pink metallic Nike heel that I wore was so iconic. Speaker 2 (5:19) I'm not kidding. I love them so much. I got them the next year in silver. Every year before school, my mom would take me to get my sneaker for the year and it stumped me. I'm obsessed with you. Every year I was like, I can't do this again. I don't know. I would call one of my friends who was like sporty and I'd be like, what's in for sneakers? Speaker 3 (5:41) She'd be like, what's in? In your world, what are the sporty sweaty girls wearing? Did Speaker 2 (5:49) you have like different gym outfits each year? No, we wore gym uniforms. So the only thing I was in charge of were the sneakers. You would have hated our gym uniform Speaker 3 (5:58) at MS51s. It was yellow and blue. I don't mind. There was no gay behind that. It was a big yellow shirt and not like cute butter yellow, like in your face yellow and then blue. Blue shorts. It wasn't good with my skin tone, but. Let me just say, I love gym class. Yeah. Speaker 2 (6:19) No. Okay. So every year I learned the rules of the U.S. Open, the Super Bowl, and like horse betting. Those are my three that I learned. Speaker 3 (6:30) Wait, so now I'm worried, as you guys know. My dream is to be friends with Chelsea Handler. Like that was my dream. It's happened. But now it's like I have to deal with the consequences of my actions. Speaker 2 (6:42) If Speaker 3 (6:42) I'm with Chelsea. Men's semifinals, Tiafoe, Ben Shelton. I might get hammered. I Speaker 2 (6:51) think if there's ever a time for you specifically as Hannah Lucy Burner Scorpio. Wait, your birthday. No, we had your birthday. Speaker 3 (7:02) By the way, I still haven't gotten my present. Speaker 2 (7:04) You want to know why? Because I look at your present every single day. And you Speaker 3 (7:07) want it. Speaker 2 (7:08) No, and I want to like mail it to you. And I'm like, that's my friend. I need to give it to her in person. I'm going to see her in person. Last night I was like, Speaker 3 (7:16) Paige's Speaker 2 (7:17) birthday is coming up. Speaker 3 (7:19) And I was like, September, October, November. And I literally was like, we have to start Googling. I was like, cool girl present. Speaker 2 (7:26) Do you know once a year I text Grace? It could be any month of the year. When's your birthday? And I go, when is Hannah's birthday again? Speaker 3 (7:34) Well, yours on Google is wrong. Like I Speaker 2 (7:37) always know it's August, but every time I I think I gaslight myself into like changing the day in my own head. You Speaker 3 (7:44) know, Des and I have the same day. Like I'm August 12th. He's November 12th. And I don't know what that means, but I can make it up. Speaker 2 (7:51) Definitely means something. Right. For sure. Yeah. Speaker 3 (7:55) There's like all this different stuff. Like you can do like your life path number. Oh, yeah. And Speaker 2 (8:00) you can like add all. So 12 and 12 definitely means something. Speaker 3 (8:03) But that's the only math you do. You're like, if you add one plus two, it equals three. If Speaker 2 (8:08) you think I have been written down, 1999. I love when you search it and they're like, you're. 1992. You're a Speaker 1 (8:15) creative leader. Speaker 3 (8:17) You're an adventure, adventure discoverer. No, but they're accurate. You're a librarian. Speaker 2 (8:23) Okay, so what are you going to wear? to the u.s open now two days in a row this Speaker 3 (8:29) is my thing my dream is wearing some like really cool vintage preppy like tennis inspired like fucking sweater shit i don't know but i've been told by the people around me and my team i have to be more subdued i can't dress like a clown Like they're like you're 35 now. Like they want me to wear more black and like be common. I'm like, that's what I wear every day. But like when I'm on the red carpet. Yeah, that's not who you are, though. I'm on Drag Race. Yeah, that's fun. When? Look, not Speaker 2 (9:04) to sound like 87 years old, but like we're not always going to be on red carpets. Speaker 3 (9:10) Well, look Speaker 2 (9:13) at Jane Fonda. Speaker 3 (9:15) I'm sorry. I feel like red carpets are for any age. Speaker 2 (9:19) Yeah, no, but I'm saying there might not always be a time where you're like, I want to go on this red carpeter. I want to throw a fit on this carpet. I think do it now how you want to do it. How fun. I do Speaker 3 (9:32) have to say, because this is so last minute, it's up in the air and I know it stresses you out, but you... if worst case scenario i skip the carpet if the outfit's just like not outfitting oh yeah you've done Speaker 2 (9:43) it yeah yeah yeah they're sick they're actually like kind of burners here okay but there's gonna be pictures of chelsea handler sitting hey it's hannah Speaker 3 (9:49) should we let her Speaker 2 (9:50) on Speaker 3 (9:52) Wait, it's going to be so embarrassing when the Jumbotron is going to go to Chelsea Handler and I'm just going to be sitting next to her. Speaker 2 (9:58) Yeah, that's why you have to have at least a good outfit from the waist up. Speaker 3 (10:01) Wait, should I make out with her on the Jumbotron? Speaker 2 (10:05) Imagine. That would be iconic. That would be a really good promo for a tennis movie. That would literally be Madonna Britney Spears in comedy. like if you and chelsea handler wrote a tennis movie together a tennis lesbian commentator movie and you starred in it tennis lesbian sports broadcasters and the way you did the first promo of the movie was at the u.s open on the jumbotron and everyone picked it up like they thought it was real and then everyone was like actually it's a promo for a movie we Speaker 3 (10:35) use this podcast it's it's just brainstorming incubator this Speaker 2 (10:39) is Speaker 3 (10:41) silicon valley for girls wait Speaker 2 (10:44) Not even speaking of, but it's actually been on my mind for like the past two days. I don't know why. Are we just never getting Taylor Swift's wedding pictures? Was that the gag? Hey, I'm having a thousand people. You'll never see it. Speaker 3 (10:59) Well, people were commenting. Apparently, Travis said apparently he said like the show was great. Like he called it a show, which made people feel like. That wasn't actually their wedding ceremony. It was more like a... But this is the thing. If you're going to have a big shebang, don't you want to publicize it? Speaker 2 (11:20) Well, I don't even care about the wedding per se. I Speaker 3 (11:25) love when you say per se. Speaker 2 (11:27) It tickles my fancy. And I think more companies should be named per Speaker 3 (11:33) se. I think every... Because I should start with per se because it makes sense per se. It's like millennial LOL. You can end every sentence with per se. It's also kind of like Speaker 2 (11:44) a Speaker 3 (11:44) really Speaker 2 (11:44) cute girl's name. Speaker 3 (11:51) Isn't it? Say it. Per se. Per se. Speaker 2 (11:57) P.S. So cute. Think about the themed birthday parties. P.S. She's like, they're all little writers. Yes, Speaker 3 (12:05) think about Speaker 2 (12:05) the Speaker 3 (12:05) embroidery. Speaker 2 (12:06) So cute. You have to think about these things. What were we saying? Wait, Speaker 3 (12:11) I have an invention for Speaker 2 (12:13) our Speaker 3 (12:13) incubator. Okay. Actually, this is so page-coded, but I have to remember to bring, I have this one pair of black capris that fit me right, that I might wear at the US Open. But I have to remember to pack it and I'm jumping on it. Speaker 2 (12:28) I Speaker 3 (12:28) just have to remember to pack it. Speaker 2 (12:30) Okay. Speaker 3 (12:30) And that's the kind of thing like I know I'm going to forget. And I realize like people will be like, hey, Siri, remind me. That doesn't work for me. I don't talk to Siri. I've actually never spoken to Siri in my Speaker 2 (12:40) life. So interesting. So like Speaker 3 (12:42) also I don't know when I'm actually walking out the door. And like if I put it in my notes, I don't click the notes. So it's like I want an app on the phone that's like put it. Calls you? No. I just want it like. Sorry, that's Lois. Speaker 2 (12:56) And happy birthday, Lois. Speaker 3 (12:59) It's so cute. I want it to just like be popped up on your screen like permanently. Like when you have important things that you can't forget at any time. Speaker 2 (13:10) Wait, I have to go sign for a package or he's going to take it back. I'll be right back. This is an Speaker 3 (13:15) emergency. Go, Speaker 2 (13:16) girl, go. Fall feels like the perfect time for a reset. New routines, better habits, and a little more attention to the things you may have been putting off over the summer. If your hair could
